In a revealing interview Alford shares why be believes President Obama’s policies are bad for the economy.

It is too bad that Alford and other Black businessmen did not realize Obama’s first four years would only be amplified in the second term.

The National Black Chamber of Commerce is “dedicated to economically empowering and sustaining African American communities through entrepreneurship and capitalistic activity within the United States.”

This Emmy winning series has caught the attention of many, gaining in popularity with each season. For my 20-something daughter and her friends it’s become a ritual Sunday as they gather together watching each episode.

Monday on Varney & Co., Stuart Varney examined the somewhat surprising viewership of this trendy miniseries. Across the U.S. and beginning with the current administration the rich are portrayed as a greedy evil lot. Granted the show is set in the early 1900’s but the well-off are seen in a positive light as good employers and people with style.

The Huffington Post: “The politics of Downton are very important and it’s important that they are popular in America today,” Varney said. “Rich people, powerful people, in America today, are reviled. They’re dismissed as fat cats who don’t pay their fair share. We just hate ‘em — ‘Rich people are evil’ … Yet, along comes this show ‘Downton Abbey’ — rich people prominently featured and they’re generous; they’re nice people; they create jobs, for heaven’s sake; they’re classy; they’ve got style and we love ‘em … That show is wildly popular, which poses a threat to the left, doesn’t it?”

Of course, the HuffPo’s staff don’t all see the show in the same light.

Huffington Post Maureen Ryan: “The big problem during a large chunk of the season amounts to the following, more or less: ‘Oh no, a very rich man is having to face the possibility of being slightly less comfortable!’ It’s fun to escape into a world of lush privilege when times are hard, but the tenor of the times also make it quite difficult to care about a well-to-do family having to trim its budget a bit.”

What do you think? Have you watched Downton Abbey? Is it escapism or is it an opportunity to see the well-to-do as something different from the ‘fat cat’ portrayal of the liberals.

http://www.conservativedailynews.com/2012/12/labor-force-drop-outs-are-the-younger-workers/#commentsFri, 07 Dec 2012 20:27:45 +0000http://www.conservativedailynews.com/?p=77093Young people in the US are not working. Unemployment for ages 16-19 is 23.5%, ages 20-24 is still a very high 11.8% (according to the BLS). This week Stuart Varney on FBN interviewed Charlie Kirk of Turning Point USA. Turning Point is a group geared to reaching the high school and college age young adults believing that an informed electorate will force candidates to stand behind principles.

The twenty-year-olds today still living at home and benefiting from their parents and governments benevolence will become the thirty and forty-year-olds of the future. Can we change this entitlement mentality before it’s too late? Will they be willing to take responsibility for maintaining the quality of life we’ve come to expect in the United States or will they choose to riot like the young in Greece when ‘forced’ to find employment, pay for retirement and health benefits? This is the country that prided itself on a ‘can do’ spirit and a willingness to take on the hard tasks and accomplish them. What will happen to following generations who are raised by these laissez-faire young adults?

Talk to your young adult friends. The future of this country is in their hands.
